Re: Printing different invoice layouts for different customers

Yes, most definitely!

Some of our customers use this option where they have clients in England and France and thus require Invoices to be printed in the appropriate Language.

Follow the procedure below:

1) Assume that the majority of customers want English layout, and a few need the French layout.

Add a Language Code for your French Invoices that you'll be using e.g. "FRE". This is done in System > Setting > Languages.

2) All customers that need the alternative invoice layout in French, add "FRE" to the Language field on the contact card, Company TAB.

3) Using the Form Register in the System module, design the English and French Tax Invoices and name them accordingly (e.g. TAXINV-ENG and TAXINV-FRE).

4) Select the Sales Ledger Module using the Modules Menu.

5) Select "Documents" from the File Menu or click [Documents] in the Master Control Panel.

The "Documents" List Window is opened showing a list of available documents. Highlight "Invoices".

6) Select "Define Document" from the Operation Menu.

7) In the first row, enter the name of the default Invoice for your local Customers ("TAXINV-ENG"). Use the 'Paste Special' feature to see the available forms in your Form register and to ensure the spelling is correct. In this case, the Language code will be blank.

On the second line, specify "FRE" as the Language and the French Invoice ("TAXINV-FRE") as the Form.


7) Click [Save] to save the Invoice definition.

8) When creating an invoice for a French customer, the system will automatically load the "FRE" language code onto the invoice, and when printed, the invoice print routine will pick the French layout.
